Azure Dreams

THE GOOD:
unlimited gameplay, good rpg, many monsters, different floor each time, addictive.

THE BAD:
Difficult from start, not very good graphics, Corny Music

SUMMARY:
My family aquired this game when we originally bought the playstation. We thought it looked like a good game to waste time on, so we opened the plastic case and popped the game into the playstation. We got this game when it first came out, so we didn't really know what we had in store for us when we started playing. I think it's a pretty good game, and I'm still playing it to this day (since 1998) It starts off pretty dumb, like a lot of games. My dad was the first one to play (and beat) the game. First it shows you up in heaven being pre-born created. The default charcters name is Koh, lets just say no one picked that name. The suddently, you are born. Then it just shows videos of your dad dying on a stormy night while he is in the "monster...

THE GOOD:
dungeon crawling adventure, dating simulation, town builder, random floors

THE BAD:
muddled graphics and music, poor story, cumbersome controls, save feature, high difficulty!

SUMMARY:
I don't remember exactly when I swept up Azure Dreams; it was probably a few years ago when I had a part-time job in high school to pay for my video games. Either way, I saw it described a challenging and fun role-playing game for the PlayStation console, and I needed something to work on after Final Fantasy VII.

Azure Dreams tells the story of Koh, a young monster tamer who, upon his fifteenth birthday, gains the rite of passage to explore the dreaded Monster Tower of Monsbaiya. And, really, that's about it. The opening sequence (after you ignore a deistic perspective of your birth) details the death and disappearance of Guy, Koh's father and a legendary tamer of the town. So Koh goes into the tower... yes, to...

THE GOOD:
Gameplay, Story, and Mini-Games!!

THE BAD:
Graphics, but who cares??

SUMMARY:
Although it has a bad start, it does get better.
The gameplay is a mixture of Strategy and RPG.
The Story involves a young Hero(default name Koh) Who wants to grow up to be the greatest monster tamer in the world! Which his Dad holds the title for.
Unfortunately there are some problems along the way.
There is an age limit on entrance.
But that ain't the problem.
Once you enter its a long way to the top. Your equipment is almost useless, and your only hope is to rely on your familiars.

This is where it gets interesting. Some evolve into bigger and better monsters when they reach level 20, whilst others stay the same. You can always fuse them together to create a stronger monster. Which sometimes learn new spells.

The Mini-Games in this game rival the best. It has bowling,...

All across the world, adventurers from every walk of life march across deserts, mountains, and countless perils, all in search of one goal. The town of Monsbaiya, Mecca of all explorers, is a small city built in the shadow of the awe-inspiring Monster Tower. This evil structure is filled with countless monsters and demons that spend their lives guarding the golden treasures within. The money is alluring, but that alone does not make the deadly task worth the risk. These daring men come to collect a treasure that is worth far more than the trinkets and baubles scattered throughout the structure. They have come to hunt the eggs of the very beasts that hunt them. With proper training and care, these eggs will hatch into loving pets and powerful allies that will bring in a small fortune to whoever finds them.

You are Koh, son of Guy, greatest monster hunter of all time. Your father was the only man to ever reach the top floor, but he never returned. It is now time for you to...

THE GOOD:
Good story, nice music, average fighting system, and ineresting chracters.

THE BAD:
Not very innovative and so many more better RPGs.

SUMMARY:
Well this game is pretty old but it is still not bad. I really got bored though when I tried to play again so th replay value is not good. I recommend this game only to hardcore RPG fanatics out there. Other then that this game is just good for renting.
